TW: Mentions of guns, death, violence, religion, hate :purple_heart:

Image made using PicsArt, everything in the image came from the stickers there and I just put it together so credit to those who made those stickers and images

Also just a heads up, this was me pretty much just venting since I really felt the need to speak up about these issues but didn't feel safe doing so elsewhere!

-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_

It's everyday now

Everyday another mass shooting

Everyday more and more laws being made

Laws that do nothing but harm innocent people

You say we are living in the "greatest" country

Yet so many of us are living in third world conditions

People are dying every day to guns

Yet you don't seem to care

You laws to protect guns

All while you're banning some peoples very existence

You say we live in the "land of the free"

But none of us are free here, not anymore

If you're not a cis white male, you don't matter here

If you don't believe in their "god" then you may as well be the devil himself

If you don't play "nice" and go by their "rules"

Well they will make sure you're silenced

We hold peaceful protests, they say we were violent

But the thing is... We've been holding back...

We're ready to fight... To destroy it all...

Cause well it's clear they don't care

They don't want us to speak up

But honestly I'm tired of this

Of not being able to make enough money to actually live

Of being told that if I don't follow "gods" rules

I'd end up burning for eternity

Of being told that my existence is a sin

I just want this to change

I want to do something

To make this place better for all

And maybe I will... But I'm not a leader...

I'm a follower.... I can't do this without someone to guide me

Why can't they just leave us alone?

Don't they have everything they need?

Why do they want to destroy us?

I don't understand this hate being spread

Especially by the very people that are supposed to love everyone

It doesn't make sense, none of it makes sense
